Where did the time go? A sorry and updates!

So there is apparently 4 weeks since my last update and that's not okay, So sorry about that and it's okay to scream at me when I don't post an update, so why has it taken such a long time and what progress has been made? Well sadly even though it's taken 4 weeks, it has not been 4 weeks of progress. The first 2 and a half-ish weeks I had mental health problems and a hard time finding energy/will to do anything so that sucked, the only good things is that seems to be over for now and I still came up with ideas under those weeks.
I was gonna post an update when I started feeling better after those weeks but I really wanted to have something new to show so tried put together something fast but the day kept passing as I kept thinking "I'm just gonna add this little thing before posting" or "Let's change this little thing" and now we are here way late... the good things are that I have some new things to show of my progress.
So what have I been working on this past 1 and half-ish week? At the last update, we had a nice color scheme and we could add "modules" to a command. Well now we can save the module and it's data so it will persist after a bot restart, with the magical save button, also some basic error checking is done on saving such as to see if the "Command trigger" field is empty, if it is it will not save and make the field border red. The Command list is now also working so we can see a list of all made commands and we can also enable, disable, remove and click to "open" the command.
Here is a gif of how the command window looks now:

Some things to note, there is no "feedback" on click at the moment only on hover.

Some things to note, there is no sorting at the moment and no "feedback" on hovering/click over enable/disable or the trashcan.
So what's next? Well, we are starting to close in on a stage where I feel like I can give the out the bot for alpha testing, though I have started calling it an alpha demo as it will only allow you to make commands with text, cooldown and permission level. And trigger those commands through chat. I'm hoping to have that out in 2 week-ish but I'm not gonna guarantee it as I still have to program the code that will execute the commands.
Some other things, even tho I said last time that the next update would be public I'm still gonna wait for that a bit longer, it's likely gonna be the next one (that I hope to post in a week) that is public and at the same time, I hope to be sure enough to post a date for the alpha demo. Expect some votings to come in next week or so for those of you that are in those patron tiers as I want your peoples input on some icons and other things.
